5.0 out of 5 stars Mandatory Reading for Social Workers, March 26, 2002
This review is from: Investigative Interviews of Children: A Guide for Helping Professionals (Hardcover)
Speaking as a child abuse defense attorney, life would be much easier if social workers would learn the mistakes they can make resulting in false disclosures of child abuse. My job would be much easier if the results of these interviews were more reliable. This book shows how and why social workers need to use proper interview techniques. It's a great book from a defense attorney's standpoint to cross-examine a social worker with, but if every state mandated this book as training for social workers in the first place, we would have fewer cases in the system, and more reliable evidence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best book for current interview protocols, January 29, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Investigative Interviews of Children: A Guide for Helping Professionals (Hardcover)
I wish I had read this book the first day it came out. Very good protocols. Very effective strategies. Speaking as a law enforcement investigator assigned to these cases almost exclusively, there is not a better book I've found yet.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent book, January 22, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book is excellent; not only for the professional that deals with children & legal cases involving children but also for anyone that needs to understand the reason why such professionals question children the way they do.
